Federal Jobs Report Slices Total Jobs in New Revision

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) today issued a major downward revision in total employment, telling us what more savvy observers of the federal jobs data already knew. Namely, that the employment situation isn’t nearly as strong as the federal establishment survey says it is.The establishment survey is the employment survey that looks at total jobs—whether full time or part time—and not at total employed people. So, that’s the report that’s...

Back to the Future With Price Controls

Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris is demonstrating why monetary debasement has always been a favorite way for government officials to plunder the citizenry. Rather than focusing on the Federal Reserve as the root cause of prices rising across society, she’s blaming rising food prices on grocery-store owners. Consequently, she says that if she is elected president, she’ll get a federal “anti-gouging” law enacted that prevents grocery...

Kamala Harris Is Not a Radical Communist, but That Makes Her Even More Dangerous

Lately, Donald Trump and his team have taken to labeling their opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, as a far-left socialist—even a full-on communist. The strategy comes after an uncharacteristic lull in messaging from the former president and his team as they worked out how to prudently attack the vice president.It’s the job of a presidential campaign to make people terrified about what’s in store for the country if the other side were to win....

Why We Need Revisionist History

The term “revisionism” came into use after World War I, when historians like Harry Elmer Barnes, Sidney Bradshaw Fay, and Charles Austin Beard challenged Article 231 of the Treaty of Versailles, which assigned exclusive guilt to Germany and its Kaiser for the outbreak of the world war, with all its appalling destruction and massacres, It was on the basis of that clause that the Treaty imposed on Germany a Carthaginian peace, memorably condemned by...

Krugman: Harris Hasn’t Proposed Price Controls and It’s Good That She Did

In Paul Krugman’s latest column, he claims that Kamala Harris hasn’t advocated for price controls, only a ban on price gouging on groceries. Of course, these are the same thing. Krugman’s own principles text defines price controls as “legal restrictions on how high or low a market price may go.” A ban on price gouging is a legal restriction on how high a market price may go. Therefore, even Krugman-the-textbook-author admits that a ban on price...

The Bankruptcy Parade Continues: U.S. Cities and Towns

The American 21st century bankruptcy show continues with cities, counties, and local special purpose districts (SPD’s) (local entities) for fire protection, hospitals, libraries, water districts, etc. One common bankruptcy theme was that when a project began and a bond-covenant issued, revenue from the project did not meet predictions, bond payments were not timely, the local entity could not renegotiate the bond payments with the lender(s), and so...

Do We Need 3% Inflation? Economic Growth and Deflation

“As long as it is kept within certain limits, inflation is an excellent psychological support of an economic policy which lives on the consumption of capital.” (Ludwig von Mises, Socialism, pp. 448-9)What causes economic growth? Is it a reduction in tariffs? Is it a cut in tax rates? Is it cutting red tape and bureaucracy? While each might stimulate or encourage economic growth, none of these choices causes growth. Economic growth is the result of...
